Currently, the serial console is hardcoded to ttyS0 in the bootloader
element. This is a challenge for users that want to build images for
some baremetal servers. Supermicro servers, for example, use ttyS1 for
the serial over lan interface.
This patch adds a new environment variable DIB_BOOTLOADER_SERIAL_CONSOLE
that can be set to override the default.

As described inline, deprecate the "source" install for CentOS 8.
Overwriting the packaged tools has long been a pain-point in our
images, and the best outcome is just not to play the game [1].
However, the landscape remains complicated. For example, RHEL/CentOS
8 introduces the separate "platform-python" binary, which seems like
the right tool to install platform tools like "glean" (simple-init)
with. However, platform-python doesn't have virtualenv (only the
inbuilt venv).
So that every element doesn't have to hard-code in workarounds for
these various layouts, create two new variables DIB_PYTHON_PIP and
DIB_PYTHON_VIRTUALENV to just "do the right thing". If you need is
"install a pip package" or "create a virtualenv" this should work on
all the platforms we support. If you know more specifically what you
want (e.g. must be a python3 virtualenv) then nothing stops elements
calling that directly (e.g. python3 -m virtualenv create); these are
just helper wrappers for base elements that need to be broadly
compatible.

Install the Python 3 libselinux packages for Fedora platforms. I
think this is the right choice; Fedora is a Python-3 only distro so we
shouldn't default to installing the python2 libraries.
This has a practical effect if you're using Ansible with
ansible_python_interpreter=/usr/bin/python3 as it needs these
packages.
There is some small chance of breakage if you're using Ansible still
with Python 2, I guess. In infra I notice we bring this in with
"zuul-worker" project-config element. On balance, I think that if you
need the Python 2 packages for some reason, it should be a special
install and not part of redhat-common.

Two bugs are addressed.
1) The sysprep element was broken in that it only truncates
/etc/machine-id, but not /var/lib/dbus/machine-id. systemd will
not generate a new machine-id if /var/lib/dbus/machine-id is
present[1], it will simply copy it to /etc/machine-id.
We observed machine-ids being packaged in /var/lib/dbus/machine-id
on several distros: Ubuntu Bionic, Fedora 29, Debian Stretch.
CentOS 7 and Ubuntu Xenial do not contain packaged machine-id as
far as I can tell.
All test builds were performed using -minimal elements.
2) A second bug existed where debian-minimal did not run the sysprep
element at all, so a stretch image I tested contained a populated
/etc/machine-id AND a populated /var/lib/dbus/machine-id.

linux-firmware and linux-firmware-whence (meta package for mostly iwl
firmwares) packages account for approx. 289 M install size on a F30
system, and linux-firmware for approx. 176 M on CentOS 7. Users needing
these firmwares are eventually baremetal users and are not looking for a
very minimal operating system base install like virtual image users are.
Thus, a non-minimal OS element is better suited for them. Alternatively,
it could be later considered a dedicated firmware element.
This is inline with I8ce65e1d357d15e8ed8995ad1dcaea02bbd1986f.

This is a follow-on to I475a253091cbaf63687b91c748c31a6753bb0f57 as we
are still seeing issues on some clouds with unconfigured networking.
We increase the timeout, but also make it configurable so we can
fiddle it without a dib release in the gate.
To follow-on from the experimentation done by clarkb, I can confirm by
emperical testing on a Centos 7 image (from today, today being this
change's date) that setting
net.ipv6.conf.all.autoconf=0
by itself is "fatal" and the interfaces do not come up; i.e. nm does
not by default seem to re-enable ipv6 for the interface. However,
explicitly adding:
IPV6INIT=yes
IPV6_AUTOCONF=yes
to the interface file *does* seem to make it work, even if
"all.autoconf=0" is set (then again, there's also bugs about the
effect of this [1]). However, no extant distribution (I can currently
find) does anything like this by default.
If this continues, this may be an option. Another might be to avoid
the use of the nm-settings-ifcfg-rh profiles and move directly to nm
ini files with glean.

The linux kernel and NetworkManager fight each other over control for
interface management when router advertisements are in use. Long story
short if the linux kernel configures a network interface for ipv6
before NetworkManager attempts to manage that interface then NM will
ignore the interface and not configure ipv4 on it.
This can happen because the kernel is configured to send router
advertisements solicitations which result in router advertisements which
the kernel uses to configure the interface(s). There is a default of a 1
second delay before sending the solicitation which in many cases is long
enough that NM has started before then. However, in slower environments
like those used for testing with qemu this isn't long enough.
Some testing by hand indicates that 15 seconds is about right so
increase the delay to 15 seconds via sysctl.conf.
Note this may increase boot times in ipv6 only environments (though it
is hard to be sure due to how systemd starts everything at once and does
socket activation and the like).
